Betsy Blue

Meet Betsy Blue, the wiggly, talkative, piglet-sounding sweetheart you didn't know you needed in your life. Betsy is about two years old, and while we can't be certain since she's a rescue, our best guess is that she's a Catahoula Leopard Dog and Pittie mix. With her one blue eye and one brown eye, her soft, floppy ears, and her gorgeous coloring, she is as stunning as she is silly. At first, Betsy can be a little hesitant when meeting new people. She will do her signature drive-by bump just to test you out before deciding you're worthy of her wiggles. But once she warms up, you will see a whole new side of her joyful, snorty, and downright hilarious personality. Her foster says she sounds like a piglet when she gets excited. She has been known to jump for joy when her favorite people walk into the room. Once you're in Betsy's inner circle, you'll be greeted with wags, wiggles, and the most loving gaze you could imagine. This girl has a deep love for her people. Betsy is an active girl who loves her walks, and she is an absolute dream on the leash. She will trot right beside you, checking in with sweet eye contact to make sure you're enjoying yourself as much as she is. Back at home, she's a toy enthusiast. Her favorite playthings are actually small plush cat toys. She will toss them into the air, chase them around, and keep herself entertained with the tiniest of stuffies. She is also a huge foodie, totally motivated by treats, which makes her not only fun but easy to train. Betsy is a smart girl too! She picks up new commands within a day or so and loves to spend quality time learning with you.

Ideal Home

Because Betsy can be slow to open up to new people, she would do best with a family who understands the beauty of patience. She would thrive in a quieter home where she can truly decompress, gain confidence, and learn that the world isn't such a scary place. Older kids who can respect her space and let her come around on her own terms would be a great match for her.

Ongoing Health

No specific health concerns are mentioned in the listing.

Training & Support

Betsy is a smart girl and picks up new commands quickly. She is treat-motivated and enjoys learning. She has lived with other dogs and cats and has done well with both, though she can be shy initially with new animals. With time and patience, she becomes a playful companion. Dog-savvy cats are recommended.
